      I'm a disabled Veteran who is about 40 pounds overweight, with Type II diabetes and in Oct 2023 I was in the *********** to have a total of 4 stents installed. I was looking for help to lose the extra weight as I was recovering from the Stents and found advertisement for Mayo Clinic $19.99 monthly weight loss program. I THOUGHT I had read the materials and only noticed the monthly price. I started the program Nov 2023. Now, I've found their program is NOT useful ... Unable to speak with real people. Only automated replies. Very poor communications. email overload with 1 to 3 every day. totally useless "recipes". Apparently, they have HIDDEN within their "agreement" the obligation to remain in the program for a full 12 months before allowed to cancel. Their email states only a 5-day "cooling off period" and their ONLY time they allow to cancel, until the end of the 12-month subscription! In my opinion, REPUTABLE companies provide a useful warranty and easy method to CANCEL. Mayo Clinic requires you to log into their system, take multiple menu paths, eventually find the "cancellation" option, then you REVERIFY you want to cancel the automated billing at the end of the current 12 month "commitment".

      I have purchased several programs from this company. They apparently switched to a different platform and I can no longer get into my account I have we sent many emails to the support email that us supposed to help get this issue resolved No response. I have gotten text messages from someone named ***** telling me to do the same thing No resolution. I have posted comments in their ******** ads for new classes and the response is the sametexted back asking for a phone call instead. No luck with that I have emails and the text string in case!So frustrating. They were a good company before this happened
